Tara, of Tara Kiwi Equestrian Shirts, is 'an equestrian on hiatus' who moved to Los Angeles from "horse mecca" in southeastern Pennsylvania
to pursue a career in fashion. She worked in apparel production
for 6 years while designing on the side, dabbling in
different aesthetics but kept coming back to her country roots.
In addition an equestrian background she has always loved everything
about the beach so she started a contemporary equestrian inspired tee shirt
line with a "west coast twist." Tara Kiwi emphasizes the following
qualities:
1. Silky smooth 100% organic cotton
material
2. Fresh designs, fun yet sophisticated!
3. Modern Silhouettes
There is a note on the office wall at Tara Kiwi that says 'We like our t-shirts to be...Fun, classic, nostalgic, imaginative,
fresh, unique and sophisticated!'. The company strives to roll that into
every shirt and so far, according to Tara, the response has been very enthusiastic. Customers
have been wearing them to evening Grand Prix events, dinner parties, schooling
lessons and just for fun! If you live on the West Coast you might run into Tara Kiwi at a horse show. Otherwise, you'll need to shop online. Thank goodness the end result is the same!
The white shirt below with "jumps" is one of my favorites:

Oh but why did they put the kimberwick upside down? But I like the rest of them!
ReplyDeleteI've been asked that a couple of times!!
ReplyDeleteThe design takes up a lot of space (lengthwise) and the kimberwick looked awkward until I flipped it upside down. Although more flattering, I realized my technical error and quickly changed the style name to 'Mixed up Bits'! :)
For 2013 I'm being careful to make sure all the equipment is right side up!
